Summoners War: Only I Summoned Divine Beasts

Chapter 392: Unexpected Demon

Caroline took a deep breath, standing in front of Nathanʼs place. She looked at the door with a serious expression, bringing the contract that they had prepared.

”What are you doing here?” Rickyʼs voice echoed from behind.

”Shouldnʼt I be the one asking you that question?” Caroline squinted her eyes. ”Nathan will join the club, not the association.”

”Thatʼs only your assumption. I doubt you have enough resources to get him.” Ricky shook his head, snorting.

”You are probably the one lacking resources. Besides, your connection is not that good,” Caroline harrumphed.

Both of them were glaring at each other. Despite saying those things, Caroline couldnʼt help but think, ʼWe have really forked out everything we have. In the end, weʼre trying to get his future after all.ʼ

Even Ricky squinted his eyes, muttering inwardly, ʼDamn it. No, I should be confident. I have stretched the associationʼs resources to the maximum. I canʼt really let the club take him, or else they will be above us for the next two and a half years or even more.ʼ

They were praying that the other party had a lower offer than the one they were giving.

*Clack!*

The door was opened from the inside as Selena took a peek while asking, ”Who is it? I think I heard noises from the outside…”

Selena fell silent when she saw these two. ”Ah.”

Caroline and Ricky immediately straightened their backs.

Caroline smiled, ”Hello. I wonder if Nathan is inside… Is it possible for me to talk to him?”

Selena raised her eyebrows before shaking her head.

”This is an important matter. I wonʼt take too much of your time either. Please.” Ricky was thinking about how to persuade her.

However, Selena continued shaking her head as if she were the one preventing them from talking to him. They couldnʼt help but wonder if the student council had set its eyes on him or not. But he had quit the student council, so it was weird if Selena tried to stop them.

Before their confusion grew even further, Selena explained, ”If you are searching for Nathan, he is not here right now.”

”Ah!” They realized they had misunderstood him. Caroline asked, ”Do you know where he is or when he will return?”

”Grand Magic Tower. As for when he returns, maybe a couple of days?”

”Grand Magic Tower?” Caroline and Ricky were stunned. Why would Nathan go there?

”Is he searching for some sort of innovation?” Ricky asked. This was his time to shine. There should be nothing he couldnʼt purchase in this world.

Caroline opened her mouth, but she couldnʼt stop him. This was the associationʼs strength.

”No. Heʼs attending the biannual presentation with his teacher.”

”!!!” Caroline and Ricky were startled and pondered.

ʼAttending the biannual presentation? Is he going to become a researcher? His teacher is a well-known figure over there. Is he trying to get this new identity? Now that I think about it, he asked for a week. I thought it was because of the battle.ʼ Carolineʼs expression turned grim.

ʼIf he is doing another important thing, doesnʼt this mean we will have a hard time after this? Does he plan all of this the whole time?ʼ Ricky frowned.

No matter what they thought about it, there was definitely one exact thing that appeared in their mind.

ʼNot good. I have to go back and discuss this again.ʼ

Caroline smiled. ”Thank you for informing us. Weʼll take our leave first and visit him once he returns.”

Ricky didnʼt argue.

With Selena nodding her head, both of them immediately retreated.

Selena shook her head helplessly. It seemed everything had gone according to Nathanʼs plan.

When she returned inside, she saw Selena bringing several items.

”Who will summon the next familiar first? Are you going to go first, Sera?” Selena asked.

”I donʼt mind going second if you want. Iʼm just bringing things to the garden. Weʼre going to use the same circle anyway, so do you mind if I watch your summoning as well?”

”Yep. In that case, you should go first.” Selena nodded.

”Sure. Letʼs go. I have brought everything there, including yours.”

Selena agreed. Both of them headed to the garden. They had drawn a summoning circle on a board and placed it in the middle of the garden so that it wouldnʼt destroy their place if they ended up summoning something big.

The items that Sera had to assist her summoning were a torch and a demonʼs horn.

”Iʼm lucky that thereʼs a demonʼs horn in the Holy Kingdomʼs storage. They have been sealing demons and purifying them, so they have this kind of thing. And the horn came from a powerful demon, so Iʼll be using this to summon Aamon.”

”You should prepare. Iʼll be watching from the side.”

”Yes.” Sera immediately placed her items in the summoning circle.

She looked at Selena and exchanged nods, signaling both of them were ready.

”Oʼ Miracle of the World, Divine Being of Summoning, please use my body as the beacon and grant the beloved being your passage. By my name, Serafina Dialanta, heed my call and come forth to this world, the great being of another world.”

The torch suddenly lit up. The red flame gradually turned into black, filling up the circle. The flame gradually found its way to the demonʼs horn and flared up.

”What is this? So hot…” Sera couldnʼt help but furrow her eyebrows.

”Hot? Get away from the flame…” Selena blinked her eyes a few times while looking at Sera, who was breathing heavily.

”Mhmmm…” Sera had a hard time as if she got turned on.

”You mean flame, right?” Selena was baffled. Why would she suddenly get turned on?

Despite sacrificing a lot of Ena, there was not much reaction from the flame itself, unlike Jinwu. She knew that it might not be like Jinwu, but this was simply too little for an entrance.

The black flame simply formed a three-meter-tall figure. It had a huge pair of horns on its head. There seemed to be a tail that looked similar to that of a snake.

The black flame gradually turned purple and disappeared, revealing the true form of the demon.

It was indeed a demon with red skin and a snake tail. It was holding a lance, which was something they hadnʼt thought of.

”To think I would be summoned into this world once again…” The demon raised his head.

”Again? Ha… Ha…” Sera looked at him, confused. She was having a hard time settling down. ”Who are you? You are not Aamon?”

”Aamon? Ah? That guy? I am not Aamon. Why do you even want to summon a weak demon? Let me see… It seems youʼre looking for a demon with high firepower. Thatʼs perfect. Iʼm a master of magical abilities. Besides, why would you even want Aamon when you can get me?”

”Huh? Who are you?”

Selena raised her guard, getting ready to fight in case something happened.

”Me? You donʼt know me? This is weird. I thought I was famous because Iʼm a part of the seven deadly sins.”

”Seven deadly sins? The seven deadly sins?!” Sera looked shocked. She never thought she would summon a demon that was associated with the seven deadly sins. This demon was indeed stronger than Aamon.

But who?

Sera frowned. ”Donʼt tell me… The horn was yours? Who are you?”

The demon smiled while politely introducing himself. ”Iʼm pleased to meet you, my new summoner. I am Asmodeus.”
